Wastewater Engineering: Issues, Trends, and Solutions explains current treatment scenarios of wastewater in different countries across the globe, the characteristics of wastewater, and rules and regulations associated with the treatment and disposal/reuse of wastewater. It covers the design and theory involving laying of sewerage network and different conventional and advanced treatment technologies employed to treat domestic wastewater. It overviews different types of emerging contaminants and their properties, ecological impacts, detection/quantification, treatment technologies, and circular economy.Features:Gives an overview of current wastewater treatment scenarios across the worldProvides insights into emerging contaminants sources, procedure to sample, available methods for analyses, and possible treatmentsReviews existing rules and regulations on wastewater engineering and standards for wastewater disposal or reuseIncludes how to use wastewater as a resource in the context of circular economyDescribes fundamentals of wastewater conveyance and treatmentThe book is aimed at graduate students and researchers in wastewater treatment, water, and environmental engineering.

This book presents the potential of using advanced and emerging technologies to effectively treat waste. It uniquely addresses treatment techniques for waste in all three phases, solid, liquid, and gas, with the goals of mitigating negative impacts of waste and producing valued-added products, such as biogas and fertilizer.

This book provides a resource for understanding the effluent discharge mechanisms and the approaches for modeling them. It bridges the gap between the fundamentals of jets and numerical techniques in hydraulic engineering by integrating the numerical modeling techniques in effluent discharge modeling.

In this update of the original Scour Manual the reader is presented with not only the latest knowledge, but also with some new specific case studies to help the designer with applying the formulas and to show the limitations and the concept of scour by the flow of water.

Focusing on surface and groundwater and sustainable solutions, this book highlights recent trends in the water sector that employ innovative management and conservation approaches in conjunction with climatic uncertainty, using hydrometeorological data sets and hydrological modeling.

Cyanobacterial toxins are among the hazardous substances most widely found in water. They occur naturally, but concentrations hazardous to human health are usually due to human activity. Therefore, to protect human health, managing lakes, reservoirs and rivers to prevent cyanobacterial blooms is critical.This second edition of Toxic Cyanobacteria in Water presents the current state of knowledge on the occurrence of cyanobacteria and cyanotoxins as well as their impacts on health through water-related exposure pathways, chiefly drinking-water and recreational activity. It provides scientific and technical background information to support hazard identification, assessment and prioritisation of the risks posed by cyanotoxins, and it outlines approaches for their management at each step of the water-use system. It sets out key practical considerations for developing management strategies, implementing efficient measures and designing monitoring programmes. This enables stakeholders to evaluate whether there is a health risk from toxic cyanobacteria and to mitigate it with appropriate measures.This book is intended for those working on toxic cyanobacteria with a specific focus on public health protection. It intends to empower professionals from different disciplines to communicate and cooperate for sustainable management of toxic cyanobacteria, including public health workers, ecologists, academics, and catchment and waterbody managers.Ingrid Chorus headed the department for Drinking-Water and Swimming-Pool Hygiene at the German Environment Agency.Martin Welker is a limnologist and microbiologist, currently with bioMérieux in Lyon, France.
